But since I have your attention, please locate your Shift Key*
and type capital letters for the beginning of sentences, the word
'I' and proper names like 'Tamer' and 'Java'. You are likely to
get better responses if you take effort to make your posts easy to read.
it has become very common on the internet not to use capital letters.[/QUOTE]
In the main, I skip past posts by people who can not be bothered to
properly capitalize and spell their posts. You are free to disagree,
but I know that I, among others, pretty much ignore such posts.
the fact is that it is faster to type and offers no loss in
readability.
Looking at your post, I assure you that it does offer a loss in
readability. Not a crippling loss, as I did respond, but quite
noticeable.
i had no trouble reading the posting and i've never been
critcized for my lack of caseness in my writings. surely, to complain
about lack of case in emails or postings is akin to insisting on
proper grammer and spelling in an instant message.
Perhaps. Note, though, that an IM is a quite ephemeral thing, read only
by your intended target. Newsgroup posts tend to stick around, and are
read by a wide variety of people, sometimes quite some time after
posting.
